Lessons on how to effectively IW.
Start with spending 28 amnesias to FINALLY unlock Jugernault 2. YEAH!
Then soulfuse the item and keep on going. Congratulations! You just unlocked holyproof 2!
But don't get demoralized, cause at your next run you are gonna unlock: holyproof 3... and 4... and 5...

But it's fine, now that potency if finally out of the way and you still have those 2 levels of jug unlocked right.
SO HERE WE GO!

Pony Talk

You're never going to believe this but this morning when I woke up, I turned on the TV and came across My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. I got new extended cable and there's a shit-ton of stuff to watch but I just had to watch this cartoon.

It was the episode Daring Don't and when I saw that pony, I freaked out and thought "There's Tenboro!" After that was Princess Twilight Sparkle Parts 1 & 2. There must've been a marathon of it. I didn't know Twi was a princess. She's got some big wings. The baby ponies just make me melt they're so cute.

But now I understand what it means when a banned person gets a trip to the moon because that's what Celestia did to Nightmare Moon. I kept thinking what a completely stupid show but I couldn't stop watching it because it was sort of well written. Thankfully, I fell back asleep. But that was funny seeing Tenboro on TV.

Peerless Hallowed Oak Staff of Heimdall in the Lottery, so many good staves recently (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

The GP economy has had pressure to change ever since the Lottery changed to only Peerless. At the moment there is less than 200000 kGP offered on the seller side, which is less than what I expect the current lottery to fetch. GP price will continue going up at this rate. I'm pretty sure that during the more popular Lottery days there is less GP generated over the whole site than the lottery takes. 500k tickets requires 500 million GP to be generated, which requires at least couple hundred million images served, even with the passive GP generation. I'm pretty sure there will be a shortage of (cheap) GP in the future. Who knows, maybe one day 1 kGP will cost over 1000 credits, though maybe players will just buy less tickets when the price goes up.

Meanwhile my bid for 175c is still active:

I have had a small bid for 175c for ages. Ever since lotteries became all Peerless the price has been 185c+, before that I could easily buy some GP for 175c and even lower.

Never going to get it (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Fucking RNG.

No, it will never go that high.
For now 500-600k ticket means a cumulative value of <150M, which, for a P(S|T|D)WD or PHOH is a steal since they could go for much more in an auction (and the other prices are not bad either), if the ticket price doubles the lottery will attract less people thus reducing the GP buy request.

Also why did Void buy so many GPs (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

(also fuck luck, I sold 5000kGP a week ago at 241)

tried my luck with waki yesterday and almost sunk all the GP generated by my GS. i guess i will avoid lottery for a bit (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Why do you even bother with lottery?

They give you hope.......mostly misplaced hope, but still hope nonetheless (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Why do you even bother with lottery?

i have some GPs laying around and either gears or tokens may be a nice ROI.

or maybe i'm only addicted to lose and whining (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

CODE

13    5    You have been defeated.
13    4    Your spike shield hits Sssss2 for 5475 points of fire damage.
13    3    Sssss2 uses 1-Piercing, and hits you for 25688 piercing damage
13    2    You are healed for 13517.35 Health Points.
13    1    You cast Full-Cure.
12    24    The effect Stunned on Sssss2 has expired.

This is ridiculous! Being defeated after a full-cure
How the hell was I supposed to defend against this.

it happens to me too every now and then. the usual answer is "if you used Spark, it wouldn't have happened"
mind to explain the situation?

Spirit Shield. Or Spark.

I had spark on IA.
It probably disabled itself due to low mana.
Which ironically may be caused due to my using of full-cure
Coincidentally the stun on ssss2 wore off at that very moment to grant him a free shot
Which unfortunately happens to deal lots of damage.

Edit:
At least that's how I would like to think what happened

how low was MP bar at a glimpse?
also, Spirit Shield didn't trigger either. maybe low SP?

Spirit Shield. Or Spark.

Both.
My fest rules are:

• You should never do fests without both spirit shield and spark.
• You should never set mana threshold so low that a spell can disable IA
• You should never set spirit threshold so low that you don't have enough spirit to do at least 1 full spirit shield + spark

aye.

* You should never do fests without both spirit shield and spark.

i'd personally opt to manually cast Spark at a certain point, but oh, well...

* You should never set spirit threshold so low that you don't have enough spirit to do at least 1 full spirit shield + spark

something like 0.6 threshold or so, then?
